    Geoff Lawton's latest DVD, Harvesting Water, has been released!

    [​IMG]

    From the producers of Greening the Desert, The DVD runs 30 minutes and follows Geoff on the job as he plans, surveys, consults and leads in the process of excavating a dam. Geoff explains the process of planning and implementing earthworks and water systems into any landscape, and sheds light on advanced water harvesting topics, including swales, soils, keyways, dam construction and problems, spillways and more.

    Plus, the DVD features bonuses such as a behind-the-scenes look at the Jordan Project after seven years, and an interview with Geoff about permaculture. This DVD is essential viewing for any student of permaculture or anyone wishing to drought-proof their property or build their own dam.

    The DVD is currently only available in PAL format, but other versions may be released in the future. Geoff will also begin filming a new DVD on food forests at the March On Ground Skills course held at the Permaculture Research Institute in the Channon, NSW, Australia. Watch out for further announcements in the near future.

    Harvesting Water costs $34.95 including shipping within Australia. For shipping anywhere else in the world, the total cost is $39.95. Watch the promo to order one now from PRI's website:

    Hi All

    Watched it last night, really enjoyed it and also enjoyed Geoff's down to earth personality.

    Well put together, it showed the thinking behind the process and step by step design to finished small dam and swale system fully built.

    Well done guys, I will be loaning it out to a few of the locals for sure.

    Baz
